WINNER OF THE FORTNUM AND MASON DEBUT COOKERY BOOK AWARD

'Recreate vibrant, playful and expertly balanced dishes that are bursting with flavour and steeped in legacy - an instant modern classic'
Jamie Oliver Cookery School

‘A beautiful, familiar and comforting cookbook … I can’t wait to buy it for everyone I know
Candice Carty-Williams

‘An outstanding gem of a book – vibrant, exciting and full of modern twists’
Ixta Belfrage

As the daughter of Jamaican immigrants, Marie Mitchell's cooking is motivated by a powerful desire to understand and celebrate those recipes that have been passed down from generation to generation. In
Kin, her hotly anticipated debut cookbook, she shares dishes from the Caribbean and its diaspora, exploring the connection food can foster between different times and different places, and between friends, families and strangers.

Accompanied by gorgeous photographs, many of them shot on location in the Caribbean, the book's eighty recipes - which include crispy saltfish fritters, rich and tempting aubergine curry, slow cooked jerk pork, zingy lime and ginger cheesecake and sweet Guinness punch - confound the widespread misconceptions about Caribbean food that abound in the West, which draw on stereotypes of intense heat, pungent smoke and a handful of familiar dishes. But while chilli is certainly a key ingredient and cooking over fire has a long and storied history, Caribbean cookery is also subtle and playful, layering different notes and spices carefully to create delicate, rewarding flavours.

Crackling with energy and heart,
Kin is a love letter to Marie's Caribbean identity, a journey through the region's myriad food cultures and a tribute to this most resourceful, resilient and joyous of cuisines. Here, Caribbean food emerges as one of the first truly global cuisines, borne out of the violent convergence of African, American, European and South Asian cultures in the long, troubling history of empire and emancipation, its legacy preserved - and, ultimately, transformed - by the kinship of those who share food.

Review

BEST NEW VOICE -- Best Books of 2024 ― Waitrose magazine

I have fallen in love with this book. The recipes it contains are vibrant, welcoming and beguilingly wide-ranging. And that’s an important factor, no doubt about it. But what makes Marie Mitchell’s stunning debut so particularly compelling is her nuanced reflectiveness, her vulnerability-risking honesty, her illuminating insistence on vital context, both historical and emotional ― in short, her sensibility... This is actually a joyful book: a celebration of what matters, of what connects us and, of course, of fabulous food! --
Nigella Lawson

Sometimes I buy a cookbook for the recipes, sometimes the design or the photography, or often it’s the words. Rarely every element of a book is so good I would own it for each one alone. I suppose I should buy it four times. Which I will --
Anna Jones

Beautiful, familiar and comforting,
Kin feels like home, and I can’t wait to buy it for everyone I know. Every kitchen needs a copy -- Candice Carty-Williams, author of Queenie

An outstanding gem of a book. Marie Mitchell’s stories and recipes are steeped in tradition – honouring the cultures and people that have shaped her – and also vibrant, exciting and full of modern twists --
Ixta Belfrage, author of Mezcla

One of the most hotly anticipated cookbooks of the year --
Gurdeep LoyalOlive magazine

Identity and connection are at the heart of this impressive debut, which celebrates dishes from the Caribbean and its diaspora. Marie’s cooking is inspired by a desire to engage with her Jamaican heritage and she writes with energy and heart in an exciting journey through the region’s myriad food cultures ―
Waitrose magazine

About the Author

Marie Mitchell is the chef and co-founder of Island Social Club, a sell-out Caribbean supper club aimed at filling the void left by the erosion of London’s once thriving Caribbean social scene. Once a deeply fussy child, nowadays she can often be found cooking, talking or writing about food. Based in East London, she believes that the best conversations are to be had at the dinner table, and she is an advocate for social inclusivity, sustainability, and creating spaces for self-care and mental health awareness.

An interesting cookbook that holds a good assortment of recipes from the Caribbean. I got it because I’d admired my Aunt’s copy. Mine arrived on time but without the dust jacket and damaged. There was a hole near the spine and crush and tear damage to the bottoms of the spine but the packaging wasn’t crushed. Having paid this much….I’m not sure that I want to keep it in this condition. I tend to look after my books and hate that it arrived like this. Regrettably, I think it may be on its way back soon.
